Austin gets deluged

by juliegomoll on July 2, 2010

When I left my house at 1:45 for a meeting, it wasn’t raining. 10 minutes later, after parking my car downtown, I got caught in a deluge. This wasn’t just runoff — it’s been raining for the last couple of days here. It caught us all by surprise. I needed to cross the street I filmed here. What fun it is, showing up drenched for a meeting at an art museum :/

Trans Positivie Renault Ad

January 11, 2010

I love, love, love this ad. So much is said in 30 seconds, it kind of blows me away. The look on the dad’s face goes from mortified to embarrassed to relieved to absolute love in a matter of seconds. This ad gives me hope. It encourages me to keep believing that the world is [...]

Yes, I Like the Kitties Too

January 7, 2010

Six posts into my new blog and 5 of them are about dogs. Yes, I’m a big dog person, for sure. But don’t worry, cat loves. I like the kitties too. Every week my friend Jan and I go the the Austin Humane Society to “interview” cats. We write bios for their web site to [...]

Who Let the Dogs Out?

January 5, 2010

Over the past 2 months I’ve had as many as 8 dogs living at my house. I have 3, and Tina has been visiting with anywhere from 3 to 5 of hers. In between Deb visited with her dog. There’s been the occasional kerfuffle, but mostly it’s been awesome. Nonetheless, when Tina left with her [...]

Saying Goodbye to Trucker

January 4, 2010

It’s never easy saying goodbye to a beloved pet. Finding a way to make the last couple of days good goes a long way, though. I met Trucker, one of 5 dogs belonging to Tina, a couple of years ago. He was the epitome of a “loveable lug”. Big, gentle, slow-moving, on the awkward side, [...]

An Afternoon with a Celebrity in Austin

January 3, 2010

Jilli Dog is quite the celebrity. She’s been on Live with Regis and Kelly, has been featured on Animal Planet, and has played poker with Bette Midler. It just so happens that her trainer, Rick Caran, is the brother-in-law of Tina Rosenzweig, who’s been staying with me for a couple of weeks. Jilli has a [...]

Mmm, Shrooms!

January 2, 2010

Tonight I made Quinoa Risotto with Mushrooms and Thyme. I think of Risotto as a rice dish, so I figured it must be one of those Italian terms that refers to the cooking method rather than the ingredients. Nope — risotto is rice, period. Whoever came up with this recipe simply took liberties. I’m glad [...]

A Resolution for the New Year

January 2, 2010

A picture a day. Every day. Maybe some words too. Going with a picture gives me some incentive to delve further into photography. Every day gets me in the habit of blogging. Will it work? We’ll see. It’s fitting that the first picture is of one of my dogs. This is Kody, resting comfortably on [...]
